๐๐ก๐๐ญ ๐๐จ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐๐จ ๐ฐ๐ก๐๐ง ๐ฅ๐ข๐๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฌ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ, but giving up is not an option? In this episode of ๐๐จ๐๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐, Jay sits down with ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ข๐๐ก ๐๐๐ซ๐๐ข๐ for an honest conversation about life after amputation, type 1 diabetes, depression, fatherhood, faith, and finding the strength to keep going. Jeremiah shares how a spider bite developed into a serious infection and eventually led to the amputation of his leg. What followed was an overwhelming period of physical and emotional adjustment, including phantom limb pain, limited mobility, isolation, and some of the darkest moments of his life. Through it all, Jeremiahโs faith and his responsibility as a father gave him a reason to keep getting back up. Jay and Jeremiah also discuss menโs mental health, the pressure to always appear strong, and why vulnerability should never be mistaken for weakness. Jeremiah opens up about the importance of finding a healthy outlet, asking for help, and having a safe place to speak honestly without judgment. This episode is for anyone navigating life after amputation, living with type 1 diabetes, struggling with depression, adjusting to a disability, or rebuilding after a life-changing medical experience. Jeremiahโs message is simple: Life may hit you hard, but you cannot give up. ๐
